Every person wants to spend time with his soul mate in a romantic, beautiful atmosphere at least once in life. They want to relax together and to remember these days for a lifetime, as the most pleasant, filled with love and tenderness days.
The places that we offer are also for tourists, but still less popular, because the best places for lovers are those where they can be alone with each other or at least not with a massive crowd of people when you occasionally poke someone with a selfie stick in the back of the head.

The Danube, ancient fortresses and castles, the night lights of the Hungarian Parliament are wonderful and romantic. In general, some people say that Budapest is “East Paris.” Yes, there is something in common in the atmosphere of these cities, but at the same time, the central city of Hungary is less vain and not yet crowded with tourists.

Infinite, horizon-lavender fields, castles, small villages, immersed in flowers, mountain roads, lakes is not a complete list of what can be seen in Provence. Here is the most photogenic route: from the coast towards the Verdon Gorge you can go Lake St. Croix, then to Moutiers-Sainte-Marie Village, the move to Lavender fields along the roads D8 and D6, and the last stop will be Lacoste and Gordes villages.

North Iceland
Untouched nature, the power of the elements, the feeling that you are alone on the edge of the Earth – despite its harsh beauty, Iceland is an ideal place to relax together.
